Présentation Coreen Simpson A Monograph / Anglais Format Relié
- Livre Photographie
Résumé : The second title in Aperture's Vision & Justice Book Series, created and coedited by Drs. Sarah Lewis, Leigh Raiford, and Deborah Willis, showcases the luminous, wide-ranging contributions of an essential artist. Coreen Simpson--photographer, writer, jeweler--has done it all. Working for publications such as Essence, Unique New York, and The Village Voice, from the late 1970s onward, Simpson covered New York's art and fashion scenes, producing portraits of a wide range of Black artists, literary figures, and celebrities. Her iconic jewelry, the Black Cameo, has been worn by everyone from the model Iman to civil-rights leader Rosa Parks. This long-awaited volume, Simpson's first, features her celebrated B-Boys series--portraits of young people coming of age during the early years of hip-hop--as well as her experiments with collage and other formal interventions. An assortment of essays and an extended interview offer powerful reflections on Simpson's unique blend of portraiture, sartorial politics, and her riveting story of an intrepid life in journalism, art, and fashion.
Sommaire:
For more than five decades, Simpson's wide-ranging photographic work has covered fashion, local political figures, and the New York art world, including Just Above Midtown gallery, an essential space for Black artists. Among the work featured in Coreen Simpson: Monograph is the artist's celebrated B-Boys series, begun in the 1980s. These portraits of young people at the Roxy club coming of age within the early years of hip-hop characteristically explore the subjects' poise and self-possession and how they expressed themselves through dress. As Deborah Willis writes, all of Simpson's portraits stress pride and dignity. This book, the artist's first major publication, offers a long-overdue celebration and introduction to Simpson's story as singular, creative force who interweaves photography, design, and explorations of identity.
